Poorman pancakes were made back in the olden days as little, quick breakfast treats. Now it's your turn to make them. Poorman pancakes are a delicious treat and easy to make. This article will teach you how to make them in a few, simple steps!

Ingredients

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup water or milk

Maple syrup for topping (optional)

Softened salted butter for topping (optional)

Steps

1

Pour the flour into a medium sized bowl.

2

Put the sugar into the bowl with the flour.

3

Pour the water into the bowl. Carefully pour to ensure that the sugar and flour doesn't go everywhere.

4

Stir the flour, sugar, and water together. Until it all looks soft and smooth.

Avoid stirring for too long, the mixture will become heavy.

5

Put the pan on the stove. Set the stove to a medium heat and wait until the pan starts to heat up.

Add margarine to the pan (if desired) to stop the pancake batter from sticking.

6

Pour some of the batter onto the pan. Try to make it look like a circular or oval-like shape. Wait for 1-2 minutes for it to cook. You will know that it is cooked when bubbles start to form around the pancake. Each side should be golden brown once it's cooked all the way.

Using a mayonnaise or tomato sauce bottle to pour the batter on the pan makes the pancake shape very even.

7

Scoop the pancake out and place it on a plate once it has cooked all the way. Continue cooking with the remaining batter until the bowl is empty.

8

Place the pancakes on a plate and leave to cool. Add maple syrup, peanut butter, etc. to them.
